Late At Night

Watching me with those creepy eyes, i hear noises of a man who cries, 
you are back again to startle me, with your demonic hands you cradle me, 
ghouls from the past haunt my mind, only a night it takes to rewind, 
will this journey last a lifetime? , the aura of fear has me blind.

You were standing close to me as i slept, not yours but my heart which wept, 
i shuddered in fear as the nightmare woke me up, 
memoirs of my burnt house broke me up, 
had i not tried to escape? .....when i felt your breath on my nape.

So long since i have known you, strange i am to the familiar you, 
why is it me that you follow? ....with your eyes so hollow, 
i know not the reason why....i dare not question and cry, 
when you pulled me with such power....only the dead try. 

I called the psychic that day, with hair so gray, 
said he sees an evil ray, 
said he can't help me today, send me blessings so i live to see the sun rays, 
his exit led to more fear, wished to leave the place without a tear, 
hoped to live without you being near, 
this life...i won't share.

Before dusk you made me yours, 
you ordered me not to venture outdoors, 
i had not known my soul that night, i opened my eyes with all the might, 
your force so intense i couldn't fight, soon i lost all my sight, 
possessed i was, you killed me tonight, will never open my eyes to a day so bright, 
people look at me with so much fright, they know now what happens late at night.

Idiot Box

I can't explain what sorrow i felt if was denied a show on your face, 
how devastating it was for me to go through the pain of denial, 
how wonderful you were was all i thought every time i watched you, 
all the while with me....like my best friend, 
as a kid you were so special, 
nothing and no one bothered me as long as i could watch you.

Growing up i realized how important and informative you are, 
i was addicted to you from the time i opened my eyes, 
my connection to the world was you, 
my idea to feel destressed was you.

I can feel the winds of change approaching me, 
can feel that the one i always loved will not be valued by me.

Have you lost your magic or haven't i an eye for interest? , 
coz watching you no longer interests me, 
you can't even hold my gaze anymore, 
not entertaining or even watchable anymore, 
rather stupid, unrealistic and to my surprise i was reduced to an ignorant fool! 
laughing at every joke, acting silly...... 
watching everything and nothing, ignoring life, 
so long all you did was led me to stupidity.....silly me, i pity me.

So much time i have wasted on you, 
for my sleepless nights i blame you, 
needless to mention i was obsessed of you, 
not my escape but a grave are you, 
i have finally agreed with those who say an idiot box are you.

Note: i am calling TV an idiot box.

I......Love You

Curse the day i am denied a glimpse of you, 
hate people who talk bad about you, 
bless the day God blessed me with you, 
life would be worthless without you, 
life would have no meaning without you, 
my source of inspiration are you, 
words can't explain how proud i am of you, 
i know i am gonna grow old on you, 
my existence is unknown to you, 
for which i am so ashamed of you, 
life would have been easier without you, 
would have a job besides thinking about you, 
hate to get up knowing i can never be with you, 
know i will never get over you, 
if only God created more like you, 
i wouldn't be so miserable without you, 
won't know these tears without you, 
no end to my fears without you, 
why am i not made for you? 
God wanted me to live without you, 
may there be another life with you, 
wish i could touch and kiss you, 
wish you knew how much i miss you, 
friends with the shining star are you, 
gone forever to be with God are you, 
people say i must forget all about you, 
tell me things so i can hate you, 
but i am so crazy that i.....love you.

What's Up?

Strange faces facing stranger...faces once familiar,
once borrowed time from the wholesaler....with the retailer....
shared time and places similar....attention meaning superior,
where is that space today?...emoticon nowadays?...expressions moved on,
where is that face today?....concoction nowadays?...eyes carried on,
where is thy time today?...went without me to conquer.... another face...another laughter,
where are thy tears today?..vent thy intelligence to rapture...another mind..another fracture,
faces still try...smirk at a glimpse of thy....faces deny...allegations defy boredom to clarify,
naught but a stage...actions reply...obsolete vividness and fake wides,
ageless pretense through ages...a question why?....a resolute stillness in the tides,
faces frown....linger and ignore...stealing glances...when caught they alight,
buy pretty laws to nazify....ugly truth to pacify,
preach fascism to decline...attempts to gratify....cause thy voice to recline,
thy must fishify...feel nothing..sleep with open eyes...let them mummify,
ignoble faces surprise...bring thy amusement and rile,
faces still manage to arise when crossed....made to “cover up”, well versed with a 
jargon “what's up?”.

My Immortal Top Ten of a Drama Called Life

My wonderful family,
God saved in disguise, gifted mother nature,
Michael Jackson altered and awoke my genes,
Rabindranath Tagore provided an insight into survival,
Leonardo Da Vinci killed my inquisitiveness,
Ernesto Che guevara convinced me “I'd better die standing than live on my knees”,
Kurt Cobain showed there was something in the way,
Enigma took me to utopia,
In books I found solace,
In ordinary people I found the meaning of extraordinary,
Eyes reflecting soul of emotions.

Who Cares?

They are crying always, unhappy with the situation.......with where they are...with what they 
are doing, 
complaining and whining about the world....
waiting for a fairy godmother to make a change.....to take the responsibility...to undo the 
wrong deed
to clean their self created mess.....also take the credit for the entire ordeal.

No one wishes to be corrected.....and no one cares....
nothing makes an impact anymore....nothing left to talk anymore....nothing useful anymore, 
all is left is ignorance and aggression to hurt and make fun.
“They are partial..unfair...biased and are the cause of this miserable phase which again is 
prolonged by them”, 
that's all i hear and say......i don't exclude myself...i am that person too....there is a name 
for it....human nature.

Chief says they are abandoning me because of you...you are one sided...imperfect, 
but i say, hey chief.... are you perfect? ...are you just? ...and have you seen the mirror? , 
i get no answer... am not loud enough..... may be no answer is enough.  

It's funny how people always fail to see flaws in them......heights of ignorance...it certainly is 
a bliss.
They give speeches on bringing a change.....and pretend....and pretend.....and pretend.....to 
think...with no realization of fooling themselves.
The world's just living with no giving..........you may be writing but is someone reading? 
Have we lost something which was never there...or may be we like to remain blind! 
no place for thought....no place for the heart.

I see curiosity....dismay....disheartenment.....agitation.....disturbance.....apprehension...and 
everything seems to be an illusion.
It's all around me....it's in me......it's everywhere i go...in everyone i meet, 
no one questions........no one dares, 
show me someone......who cares!

Whimsical Illusion

Distances separate tomorrow, today bother why?
City streets and shops, neon lights and mall crops,
highways and cars, cafe frappe and chocolate bars,
low rise denims to woo, funky earrings and chic shoes,
blackberry and fruit cherry, discos and bows,
their jazzy tops, my weekly flops,
their silence and my chop- chops,
trashed and caught up why?
foreign soil, a stranger tomorrow, today bother why?

Dreams manipulate tomorrow, today bother why?
Look down and frown, from where is this clown?  
Hello friend, which town?
Why wear grandma's gown?
break limitations friend, come down,
eye to eye, away from money's sound,
Goodbye friend, different sky , distance noun,
overlook me friend, anticipate why?
Different people, views and news tomorrow, today regret why?

Conn---Ected

I feel possessed, 
i am obsessed, 
my soul undressed, 
i confessed.
No one but you, 
nice to know you, 
if only you would hear when i say i love you.
Before you i knew no magic, 
now i feel my life so tragic.
Why is it that some people attract us, 
such a brilliant force which grabs us.
I find no joy in your absence, 
i can be still forever in your presence.
Why is it that you captured my soul and mind, 
only you can bring me some peace and rhyme.
I try to tell them i am not insane, 
and this isn't just a phase in the rain.
No one does but me, 
with me forever you will be.
We think so alike, 
you make my heart fly like a kite.
I feel strange about this entire episode, 
empty memories are all i load, 
“all happens for a reason” i heard, 
you flew away like a bird.
My imagination ran wild, 
this plastic world made me rile, 
and i wonder...
only a picture can change my profile, 
what damage reality can do to my mind! 
Oh God! my emotions forming a concoction, 
am i the only one who feels the connection? 
i don't want to follow and fly away like you did, 
i only feel hollow and my soul connec-ted.

Amazed

Your capability to think indirectly amazes me, 
the ability to twist things around amazes me, 
how you go on cribbing about the world being unfair to you amazes me, 
my incapability to comprehend you at times amazes me, 
how everyone is a wannabe to you amazes me, 
your self obsession amazes me, 
your notion of being the best amazes me, 
your two sided nature amazes me, 
times i feel that you are better than the rest but your proficiency in letting me down amazes 
me, 
how you manipulate without being labeled as an opportunist amazes me, 
how you make me pick up the pen and write this stuff amazes me, 
the way you fool me with your straight talk amazes me, 
way you make me think hard amazes me, 
how you make me realize my faults and learn nothing amazes me, 
way you make me feel useless and sick inside amazes me, 
the fact that i can't ignore you amazes me, 
my honesty amazes me, 
my naivety amazes me, 
my inability to become like you amazes me, 
why i don't call this a complexity amazes me, 
but people such as you don't seem to amaze the world, 
as world's nothing but a place for manipulative people and that amazes me.

Funereal

Come with me o thee, 
to my grave and reach,
for my ecstasy deceased,
take my eyes and see,
my ashes and feel,
gravity of my soul and preach,
kindness and passion meet,
your greatness my plea,
blind me light come walk with me, 
alter me please, destroy the devil in me,
carry me angel, fly with me,
away to infinity,
discover uncharted horizons and feel,
restless in the vastness you reel,
burn me fire, melt with me,
vaporize veins, surprise me,
zero me radiance, die with me,
fade away shining star....shine in me.
